In our previous research, we constructed the affine varieties $\Sigma_{\mathbb{A}}^{13}$ and $\Pi_{\mathbb{A}}^{14}$ whose partial projectivizations admit $\mathbb{P}^{2}\times\mathbb{P}^{2}$-fibrations with relative Picard number one. In…
A V_{12} Fano threefold is a smooth Fano threefold X of index 1 with Pic X = Z and (-K_X)^3=12. We show that the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on any V_{12} threefold X admits a semiorthogonal decomposition consisting of two…
We prove that certain Fano fourfolds of K3 type constructed by Fatighenti-Mongardi have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition. We present some consequences for the Chow ring of these fourfolds.
Let $X$ be a Fano manifold which is the zero scheme of a general global section $s$ in an irreducible homogenous vector bundle over a Grassmannian. We prove that the restriction of the Pl\"ucker embedding embeds $X$ projectively normal, and…
Cluster algebras give rise to a class of Gorenstein rings which enjoy a large amount of symmetry. Concentrating on the rank 2 cases, we show how cluster varieties can be used to construct many interesting projective algebraic varieties. Our…
We show that certain Fano eightfolds (obtained as hyperplane sections of an orthogonal Grassmannian, and studied by Ito-Miura-Okawa-Ueda and by Fatighenti-Mongardi) have a multiplicative Chow-K\"unneth decomposition. As a corollary, the…
We construct first examples of Fano varieties with torsion in their third cohomology group. The examples are constructed as double covers of linear sections of rank loci of symmetric matrices, and can be seen as higher-dimensional analogues…
References to the works of Iliev-Ranestad and Kuznetsov added. ----- In a first part we detail the construction, on a general Fano 4-fold of genus 9, of a canonical set of four stable vector bundles of rank 2, and prove that they are rigid.…
We show exceptionality of certain families of non-quasismooth weighted hypersurfaces. In particular these admit K\"ahler-Einstein metrics. Our examples are produced by the monomials generating the complex deformations of orbifolds whose…
We prove that smooth Fano 3-folds in the families 2.18 and 3.4 are K-stable.
We establish the vanishing of the third unramified cohomology group for many types of Fano hypersurfaces in projective space over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, and over a finite field. For cubic hypersurfaces…
In this paper, we investigate K-polystability on smooth complex Fano 4-folds with Lefschetz defect at least 2, focusing on the case of Lefschetz defect 3 and on Casagrande-Druel Fano 4-folds with Lefschetz defect 2. We show that exactly 5…
We show that cubic fourfolds with lattice of algebraic 2-cycles of rank greater than 19 have abelian and finite dimensional (in the sense of Kimura) Chow motive. This also implies Abelianity and finite dimensionality of the motive of…
We classify Q-Fano threefolds of Fano index > 2 and big degree.
We prove the existence of asymptotically cylindrical (ACyl) Calabi-Yau 3-folds starting with (almost) any deformation family of smooth weak Fano 3-folds. This allow us to exhibit hundreds of thousands of new ACyl Calabi-Yau 3-folds;…
We classify smooth Fano threefolds with infinite automorphism groups.
We provide a complete classification of Fano threefolds X having canonical Gorenstein singularities and the anticanonical degree (-KX)^3 equal 64.
We settle the problem of K-stability of quasi-smooth Fano 3-fold hypersurfaces with Fano index 1 by providing lower bounds for their delta invariants. We use the method introduced by Abban and Zhuang for computing lower bounds of delta…
We construct prime Fano manifolds from spin representations of $Spin_n$ for $n\le 14$. In this range, and if $n\ne 13$, the projectivizations of these representations are prehomogeneous, and we deduce that our Fano manifolds are locally…
We classify primitive Fano threefolds in positive characteristic whose Picard numbers are at least two. We also classify Fano theefolds of Picard rank two.
